Learn more about the 7 modules of DVC

These modules work 24/7 to capture and record data about housing conditions, events and activity inside all the DVC® cages, without disturbing or impacting the animals.

These modules are:

BEDDING CONDITION - detects changes in moisture within the bedding

FOOD & WATER – an infra-red system is embedded in the runners to detect food and water levels, or to check if a bottle is positioned correctly

ANIMAL ACTIVITY – by means of a sensor plate, the system’s software captures digital data to detect daily anomaly in animal activity patterns

LEAK DETECTION – detects water leakage inside the cage and sends an automatic alarm to operators for immediate action

DVC FACILITY PLANNER – to improve the facility’s daily workflow, task assignment and utilisation of resources

CAGE IDENTIFICATION – to easily identify cages in your facility that need special attention or follow up

INVENTORY – detects cage occupancy, locates all the DVC cages in the facility in real-time and provides automatic billing

To learn more about these 7 modules watch Giorgio Rosati, Tecniplast Marketing Manager, Digilab Solutions, explain more in this short video clip. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D-VI3j3x-30&t=9s
